Greetings from Students For Africa!

We at SFA realize that a number of students identify as African or as people interested  
in the cultural heritage of the continent, advocacy or development work. We are  
in the process of expanding and growing as an organization and would like to extend  
a campus wide invitation to all students interested in being an agent of change  
on the African continent.

Our mission is two-fold and includes representing the many different faces of  
Africa and celebrating her heritage while also working on education and finding  
sustainable solutions. Many of our members are currently working on social justice  
projects in Ghana, Kenya and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Many members  
choose to volunteer as a group and together we hope to create meaningful change.  


If you are at all interested in joining these innovative objectives or sharing  
your experience of Africa with the rest of the campus, please blitz "SFA" to join.  
We'd love to have you!

We have included SFA's current mission statement for your convenience.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
The SFA Team.

***************************************************************************************************************

Students For Africa works to represent and be the face of Africa on the Dartmouth  
campus. Our main goals are:
- To raise awareness about the issues affecting these regions as well as working  
towards solving these issues of social justice and development. We use awareness  
campaigns, fundraising events, dinners and discussions to achieve our main goal.  

- To be equally concerned with the culture of Africa. SFA has a social component  
that is used to raise awareness and funds, promote recruitment/membership and  
showcase culture.
SFA is currently the only organization representing Africa on this campus. It  
follows that we have the responsibility to paint Africa in all her lights, socially,  
politically, and culturally.
